Both the 3/4 yr old and the 6/7 yr old are girls. the 3/4 yr old is still wearing diapers. Their mom works w/ my mom, so the mom chose me because she finds me very responsible and mature. Often, Iam asked to babysit these girls for 3+ hrs. I often run out of things to do, because they want to do the messy stuff, PAINTING, etc. Iam attempting to find cheap, easy, fun kits that have crafts or craft/bordom buster ideas. I have even resorted to singing them silly songs. If someone could possiblty help me and give me good ideas for ativities for these girls, i would very much appreciate it.
Please keep in mind- I can't drive!!

I relate for your question. the position I stay in case you stayed in gymnastics and confirmed expertise, the rigidity began to hitch a crew. My daughter also took it from an early age. even as she became 5 i began asking father and mom of older youngsters about it. One mom had an 8 12 months old and she or he stated her time table became 20 hours a week. I only might want to not see allowing that with my daughter. on the time she also did ice skating so I gave her the alternative between both, and she or he chosen ice skating. Now she herself is 8 and an analogous rigidity is there to skate many hours a week. even if, what's different is that she's not on a crew so as that provides us a lot more beneficial freedom. it truly is a man or woman attempt in the route of her personal personal objectives. So interior the autumn even as she has more beneficial college artwork we flow right down to three-4 hours a week, and we can put in additional beneficial hours in wintry climate even as she will't play outdoors besides. yet she might want to skate each day earlier college and there are those who do this. My priorities are to provide her existence stability at this age. She might want to skate each day if I gave her the alternative. i do not imagine which may be healthful or good for her at this age. certain, you should pay interest for your babies in the experience that they love an interest yet you nevertheless should be the confirm and make a judgment call about what's too a lot - and only because different people do it would not make it the right decision for your newborn.

Depending on how often you babysit, each time you go over to babysit, have a theme. Fill a box/bag for each girl (age appropriate) at home with assorted things to do over the course of the time you are with them. For example, the theme is princesses. You could include dolls to dress up, clothes for a princess, draw a castle, puzzles. Find things from what you have and get to know what toys they have. Be creative.

My 3 yr old loves to "wash" dishes or "dust". I fill the sink with sudsy water and let him "wash" dishes with a rag, then dry them off. I also give him baby wipes and let him "dust" whatever he pleases. If you can, play outside, too. Create mini races or scavenger hunts.
